Handrail Step-by-Step Installation
Note: Check local code requirements prior to installation
This handrail’s versatility allows for many different types of installations.
Therefore, these suggested steps may vary for your application.
Please note, you may install your handrail onto many different wall types
simply by obtaining the appropriate fasteners. If you have any questions on
recommended fasteners, please visit our website. www.maddenmetals.com
Handrail Interior Wall Installation
1. On the ground, layout handrail and wall brackets to ensure you will
achieve your desired look and symmetry once the handrail is installed.
2. Determine approximate
handrail installation
location.
3. Determine stud or secure
mounting location for the
wall brackets. For a safe
installation, handrail
brackets must be anchored
securely to the wood framing
behind the drywall or
plaster of an interior wall.
4. Using a pencil or masking tape
mark the center of stud locations along the
wall. (If unsure on how to locate a wall stud,
there are many references on the Internet).
5. At this point the handrail may be cut to your desired length
using a 60-80 tooth wood blade and chop saw. Metal cutting blades
ARE NOT recommended as they will melt the aluminum.
6. Install endcaps into the handrail using a
hammer and a protective barrier to protect
the caps’s finish (i.e. cardboard from package)
IMPORTANT!! THE ENDCAP MUST BE INSERTED EVENLY
INTO HANDRAIL, SHAVING OFF EXCESS PAINT MAY HELP.
7. Starting at the low end of handrail, measure
from the nose of your stair tread up the wall
33”. Holding the wall bracket in place,
make a pencil mark where the wall bracket
fastener is to be installed into the stud
(in the large bracket fastener hole).
8. When using the provided wood lag screw,
drill a 1/4” pilot hole into the wall and
CENTER OF STUD for the wall bracket
fastener. Important: Ensure your pilot hole is
hitting a solid mounting surface – i.e. the center of a stud.
9. Loosely secure the wall bracket
to the wall with the appropriate
included fastener.
10. Now repeat steps 5-7 for the
upper wall bracket.
11. Set the handrail on the wall
brackets and mark pilot hole
locations for the lower bracket
to attach to the handrail.
Tip: Use the drill (with bit
spinning) to make your
pilot hole mark
12. Place handrail on a gentle
surface (ie. carpet) and drill
5/32” pilot holes for the lower
bracket only.
13. Loosely fasten handrail to the
lower wall bracket with provided
fasteners and proceed to mark
pilot hole locations for upper
bracket.
14. Complete final assembly by
attaching wall brackets to the
handrail and then tighten
brackets to the wall.
15. Apply bolt caps over bolt heads.
We highly recommend using a
small amount of Super Glue or
caulk inside the bolt cap to
firmly secure the bolt cap to
the bolt head.
